these are 6 inch slotted pots. How large should the decorative pot be that goes outside of it it?

I don't use decorative pots outside the slotted pot. Some orchids need light on their roots.

I use the 7" top, 5" bottom and 5" high pot. It fit perfectly. But since the decorative pot have different shapes, it is better to do the double check.

The pots are exactly 6 inches across the top and almost 4.5 inches high. Does this answer your question? We did not use decorative pots. I like to see the roots, (also see Mary Krueger's reply) but 8 inch sounds about right.

Good day, I received mine in a 4" pot and immediately transplanted it in a 6" pot. It has grown quickly and I will soon be moving to an 8" pot. I have had the best luck with all my tropical plants by increasing the pot by two inches until it gets root bound then going larger. Ultimately, if you will be bringing it indoors, I wouldn't go larger than a five gallon pot preferably on wheels. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure what the manufacturer recommends, but I've had 6, good sized 8" pots on a 3 shelf set up with absolutely no issues. These shelves are great!

i think 2" pots will be perfect. you may need to add a bit more soil in some of them.

The outside diameter of the stock pot must be the same size as the ring or perhaps 1 in or 1.5 ins smaller but not bigger than the ring.

The dimensions of the 6 quart pot that I purchased are approximately 9.5" wide (excluding handles) and 5.25" tall. There is very little flare from bottom to top.

The 6qt stock pot I purchased measures approximately 9.5 wide(across the bottom)and approximately 9"inches tall' ( to the top of the knob ). Height of the pot without the lid is approximately 5.25 inches. Hope this will be helpful-

I actually put a 13 1/2" square pot inside the planter. Fits very well. I bought it at Kmart.

Without measuring it, its about 2 inches, give or take 1/2 inch. I think a small cactus or aloe plant should have no problem living in here but there are no drainage holes, so you couldn't hang it outside unless you live in the desert. I wouldn't put the plastic container inside it, it may get stuck. I would fill it with some sand and then cactus medium around the soil and root ball that you remove from the pot. These are gorgeous. I bought 4 sets for my deck.

Just measure from one side to the other of pot. I do not remember how big the pot was it was for someone else I ordered for. If it does not fit you can always return it.

These things are amazing! We have them mounted to a wooden fence. Have used them with 4, 6, & 8 inch clay pots with the rim and they work just great! . Have not tried anything bigger. Hope this helps!!

You can fit 6 actual pots, but it is a tight fit. Once they start growing it is too crowded, I have 4 shortys and it is a tight fit. I would recommend 2 or 3.

The answer is not as simple as you might think. As with most pots, the bottom edge is rounded off. If you're talking about the width of the pot before the edge starts to round off, that's approx 11 3/4". But if you go all the way to the outside edge of where it's rounded off -- to the point where you're now at the side of the pot -- that's a hair under 13". To put it another way, if you were to set the bottom of the pot inside something, let's say another pot, that pot would have to be 13" wide for it to fit.

I'd say the quality of mine was really good, maybe 2 bigger plants but not too big . I can fit about eight 6 "pots with small coleus plants because they don't bush too much but not a lot. If you have the space, I'd recommend a bit of a bigger size. After the first few weeks, you'll want a bigger one probably lol!

I put an 11" deep round pot that is 12" across. It just barely fits. The one I used is made of a corrugated type material that has a little give to it.
